Dicarbonyl Stress and Glyoxalase-1 in Skeletal Muscle: Implications for Insulin Resistance and Type 2 Diabetes

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018
Glyoxalase-1 (GLO1) is a ubiquitously expressed cytosolic protein which plays a role in the natural maintenance of cellular health and is abundantly expressed in human skeletal muscle.

Plasma EV Proteomics Identifies ECM Remodeling and Inflammatory Proteins LUM and C7 as Candidate Biomarkers in FSHD

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is one of the most debilitating and common muscular dystrophies. Despite its severity, no approved therapy exists for FSHD patients. However, several therapeutic candidates are currently under development, and some have recently entered clinical trials, marking the need for reliable ...

Electrical stimulation of biofidelic engineered muscle enhances myotube size, force, fatigue resistance, and induces a fast‐to‐slow‐phenotype shift

open access: yesPhysiological Reports
Therapeutic development for skeletal muscle diseases is challenged by a lack of ex vivo models that recapitulate human muscle physiology. Here, we engineered 3D human skeletal muscle tissue in the Biowire II platform that could be maintained and ...

Aging of Human Skeletal Muscles

open access: yesCollegium antropologicum, 2005
Normal aging in humans is associated with progressive decrease in skeletal muscle mass and strength (sarcopenia) which contributes to frailty and falls. The age associated changes in body composition result from lower levels of anabolic hormones, oxidative damage, neuromuscular alterations and a general decrease in muscle protein turnover.

Glucagon‐Like Peptide‐1 Receptor Agonists in Multiple Sclerosis: A Topical Narrative Review

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The glucagon‐like peptide‐1 (GLP‐1) receptor agonists (RAs) are a relatively new class of drugs that were initially approved by the US Food and Drug Administration to improve glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and, subsequently, weight reduction in patients with obesity.

Clinical Variability and Genotype Driven Outcomes in an International Cohort of 14 Pediatric FIG4 Patients

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Biallelic FIG4 variants classically cause distinct conditions characterized by peripheral neuropathy (Charcot‐Marie‐Tooth disease type 4J) or skeletal dysplasia (Yunis‐Varón syndrome). However, central nervous system involvement is increasingly recognized. The prevalence and specific characteristics of movement disorders within FIG4‐

Metabolic and molecular regulation in skeletal muscle dysfunction and regeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Skeletal muscle is an important organ in the human body for maintaining overall strength and mobility. Skeletal muscle has the capability of self-regeneration, which can be achieved by utilizing specific energy pathways.

G0/G1 Switch Gene 2 controls adipose triglyceride lipase activity and lipid metabolism in skeletal muscle

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2016
Objective: Recent data suggest that adipose triglyceride lipase (ATGL) plays a key role in providing energy substrate from triglyceride pools and that alterations of its expression/activity relate to metabolic disturbances in skeletal muscle.

Prospective isolation of human fibroadipogenic progenitors with CD73

open access: yesHeliyon, 2020
Skeletal muscle relies on coordination between myogenic and non-myogenic interstitial cells for homeostasis and for regeneration and response to injury.
